Volume 3 Mending the Crack in the Sky Chapter 125 (15)

More than 1,000 Bohai strong crossbowmen were divided into five divisions and had been waiting for orders behind the walled fence.

These Bohai elites, who followed the Khitan for repeated expeditions in the former Liao period, can be regarded as having considerable combat power. Since Bohai chose a side early in the war between the Liao and the Jurchens, it has always been highly valued by the Jurchen high-level. Zonggan's wife Yu Bohai Yang's family, and Zongfu's wife Yu Bohai Li's family, are all Jurchen high-level Huairou means that the Jurchen high-level intends to turn Bohai into the Jurchen. In the past few years, the people of the Bohai tribe have also spent a lot of effort to train these military horses.

The Bohai clan has always been inclined to the Zongwang East Route Army group in the Jurchen power struggle. This time, the East Route Army went south, and the Bohai army was naturally the most capable of fighting. Just looking at the more than 1,000 crossbowmen under the command of Zong Bi who was temporarily transferred, they are all strong and strong, full of wind and frost, and some of the archers' beards are a little gray, and they are old crossbowmen for many years! Although these old crossbowmen are already strong in fighting, they are still accurate and ruthless when they shoot with crossbows!

(The Bohai clan was very popular at the beginning of the Jurchens, but they only bet on one door, and the tendency was too obvious.) Zong Wang died early, and in the brutal and bloody power struggle within the Jurchens after Zong Wang's death, the temporary prosperity of the Bohai people under the rule of the Jurchens was like a flash in the pan, and it disappeared early - Oscar press)

The five strong crossbowmen in Bohai are also followed by auxiliary armies such as Cangtou bullet pressure, and the establishment is very large, with more than 2,000 crossbowmen and auxiliary troops. The role of these auxiliaries was not to fight for the Jurchen iron cavalry or spear formation. Rather, at the time of the battle, one person holds a long side card to cover the crossbowman, and the other is the upper string.

The auxiliary army of such a scale is added together, and after the fence, there is a piece of black pressure. The shouts of those tribal armies in the southeast swept over like a tidal wave. Even the Jurchen Iron Cavalry in the direction of Zong Bi Da Zhen farther away was alarmed. A famous horseman was sent over to see the situation. However, these Bohai veterans are all firmly guarding behind the fence, standing in the closest position to the barrage city, and many Bohai veterans are even quietly chewing dry food, waiting for the upcoming fierce battle.

When Yang Zhong hurriedly came, several Bohai Navy generals immediately greeted him and asked around Yang Zhong: "General, have you reported to the noble people of Puluhun, we can't move lightly." You can only defend this barrage and fight. How many of those tribal armies died, and what birds did it matter? ”

Yang Zhong's face turned pale, and he just waved his hand fiercely: "The noble Puluhun said that we can't say it, we can only take orders to meet it, and each of us orders the men and horses under our command!" ”

Several Bohai admirals suddenly shouted: "What kind of bird is this? We have left the barrage water city, who will guard here? ”

Yang Zhong turned his head and signaled, and saw that Pruhun's personal guard Mouke had already mounted his horse, and the brigade urged his mounts to meet the front line in chaos, needless to say, he would slash and slaughter the defeated tribal army and drive them back to the battlefield. And dozens of Jurchen military horses rushed over to the side of the Bohai Navy. This is to monitor their rapid movement forward, if there is any further delay. Presumably, these Jurchen iron horsemen have no mercy in slashing and killing the Bohai people!

Several Bohai generals suddenly lost their voices, but Yang Zhong gritted his teeth and said, "I will lead three of them forward, and the other two will be here along with the bed crossbow!" I personally went into battle, this is always explained by the noble people of Puruhun, the future of our Bohai clan is pressed on the Jurchen, no matter what happens at this time, just fight hard! Defeat the Southern Dynasty, we Bohai can always divide the country and reproduce the glory of Longquan Mansion that day! ”

In fact, Yang Zhong was very angry about the measures taken by the Jurchen East Route Army after attacking Yanjing and Danzhou, why the soldiers were on the side of Yixian County, and there was a lot of rain in summer, and the soldiers were injured in vain. The Jurchen Eastern Route Army's 100,000 troops, of which at least 20,000 or 30,000 iron cavalry had strong mobility and huge destructive power, were completely restricted. And this battle of intercepting the reinforcements of the southerners by river and Puruhun was commanded in a mess. But the fate of the Bohai clan has been completely tied to the Jurchens, and at this time, no matter what, they can only fight hard, I hope to attack this damn Yi County as soon as possible, or Zong Wang and other commanders will wake up as soon as possible and get rid of the bad situation under this fortified city!

Before the dozens of cavalry Jurchen prison troops approached and scolded, a loud voice of orders sounded in the Bohai army formation. The torrent of thousands of people suddenly rolled, and a Bohai crossbowman wearing a pointed leather hat carried a crossbow machine on his back, stepped through the mud, and rushed in the direction where the Nanren boat came, while the auxiliary troops carried side cards and bundles of crossbow arrows to take out the strength to feed and follow.

Seeing the Bohai Sea move, the dozens of Jurchen military horses suddenly turned their horses' heads, opened the way first, and galloped towards the most chaotic riverbank. And the Song Jun's boat has already rushed through nearly half of this more than ten miles of defense river!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The screams rang out from the ground, but this was not caused by the various arrows that Song Jun's boats kept splashing. Instead, hundreds of Jurchen armor soldiers turned over and dismounted, lined up, each with a long knife in their hands, facing the rout of the large tribes that had collapsed to the north, and slashed and killed the past like this!

Hundreds of Jurchen armor soldiers, like killing machines, but seeing the sword light rolling layer by layer, the retreating tribal army fell down one by one. In an instant, the blood was smeared all over the ground, and hundreds of defeated troops were in different places!

The Jurchen armor soldiers did not shout and shout, they just let go and slash and kill, but used the simplest way to tell these northern tribe military horses that under the banner of the Jurchen army, what would happen if they did not follow the order to fight desperately and retreat!

The rout of these tribes that came from behind immediately stopped when they saw this scene. However, the Jurchen warriors were not satisfied with their end to the rout. There was another horn in the ranks, and these stout and fierce Jurchen heavy-armored men stepped forward again!

A tribal army chief could only shout loudly, leading his frightened men and horses back to the front. The army originally arranged on the south bank was relatively small, and there was no real Jurchen iron cavalry to escort the formation, and at this time it had already collapsed out of control. And on the North Shore. At least two or three thousand tribal troops were oppressed back by the Jurchen armor. The ranks are denser. Many of them had lost their bows and arrows, and the hedgehogs gathered in the short stretch of the riverbank, disturbing and pushing each other, and it was completely impossible to form an effective command. Even though some people are still trying to shoot with their bows, they are no longer able to form a dense rain of arrows, and there is no hope at all, and some archers just try their best to shoot the arrows in the bag. Such a table is even more unconventional than just now.

And the Song Jun's boats had already rushed over, one after another passing by this dense crowd, still swept by the rain of arrows and arrows, and the screams and wails in this dense crowd were ten times stronger than just now! The tribal horses did not dare to retreat, so they could only charge left and right, trying to spread out a little, which only exacerbated the confusion. For a while, I don't know how many people were pushed into the water. These Northland tribal sergeants wore heavy leather robes. Once you fall into the water, you don't have the slightest ability to struggle, the turbulent and easy water rolls, and the river is a leather hat flowing down the river!

Li Jun stood firmly at the bow of the boat, glanced at the Tartar military horses on the north shore that did not look like they were just sending them to death, and snorted contemptuously: "What kind of bird battle is this?" ”

The boat he was in was always at the front, and by this time the oarsman was already sweating profusely, and his head was steaming hot. And the broadside shooters were also in full swing, just constantly sprinkling death on the Tartars. Only more than 20 sergeants dressed in soft suits and ready to fight sat in the hull of the ship to recuperate.

The barrage water city is just three or four miles away. Standing on the bow of the boat, through the covered cooked cowhide, you could already see the row of chest-high wooden stakes above the water city nailed by wooden rows, behind the wooden stakes, but I saw the defenders running around in a panic, and I didn't know what they were shouting. And the Tartars, who were about to fight on the wooden rafts and boats moored on the banks of the river, also did not pull the oars, and watched the Song Jun's boats rushing closer and closer.

After the two banks stretch the Jiahe Zhaizhai, you can see countless Tartar flags, which represent the Zhaizha, and I don't know how many Tartar military horses there are. Although he led such a small fleet, Li Jun was not afraid at all. With the Tartars' ability to fight in water, if you want to stop us, you may still have some hope of reincarnating and rebuilding. Even such a seemingly sturdy barrage city can't stop us!

And after rushing through the barrage water city, less than three miles of waterway, you have already reached the water pass of Yixian County, and you can meet the defenders!

In the sound of the crossbow machine strings, Li Jun looked back and shouted: "Add another oar!" You birds, follow me to the Water City! I'm always ahead of you guys! If the fate is big, one is counted as one, and I will invite you to drink in Yi County! ”

Whether it was an archer or an oarsman, or a son who was still closing his eyes and preparing to fight at the moment, they all laughed: "Commander Li said that the city of Yixian is a battlefield, where can I find bird wine?" Even if there are three or two sips, it is not enough to command one person to drink. Or if you have the life to go back in the future, please command the Hun family to pour us wine! ”

Li Jun has already married a family, his appearance is not amazing, and the Hun family is also a fisherman's child, but he was born snow-white and pink. Li Jun accompanied the Tianwu army to defend Hebei, and the Hun family carried a burden and visited the army under the escort of his younger brother. For a while, how many soldiers were alarmed to come to look, and even the officials such as the Marquis of Yu were commanded to take advantage of the excuse to leave, and after turning around and leaving, they scolded Li Jun for being so blessed.

When the brothers mentioned their daughters-in-law, among the thousands of hosts, Li Jun couldn't help but feel soft. But the screams and wails of the surrounding Tartars came, which made Li Jun's expression turn stiff again.

Even if it's for the sake of his daughter-in-law, he has to fight to block these Tartars!

"Onward!"

With Li Jun's order, the oarsman's feet were firmly propped up, and with each pull, his whole body almost fell on the plank. The speed of the boat, which was already not slow when going upstream, has sped up again!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the west of the chaotic array of tribal armies that had no rules for fighting by the river, hundreds of Bohai crossbowmen who hurried at this time finally spread along the river bank. Panting bullets smashed the almost one-man tall side cards into the mud, while the other was half-kneeling behind the crossbowman, ready to take over the crossbow machine at any moment.

The Bohai crossbowmen stood calmly on the side of the side cards, took off the crossbow machine they were carrying, wound it in the stirrups, and then snapped the bolts into the chute. One of the crossbowmen, who looked to be the oldest, first raised his crossbow machine and fired a shot into the river, and then shouted, "Look at the mountain!" ”

Hundreds of crossbowmen suddenly neatly raised the crossbow machine and pushed the Wangshan Mountain that was attached to the crossbow body up two squares.

Yang Zhong also stood still behind the formation, staring at the direction of the river.

The water is rolling, and on the east bank of the river, there is a large group of hedgehogs gathered by the clan's military horses, and the screams and wails are heard from the ground to the sky. And the Jurchen armor soldiers who were in the back of the formation had no way except to cut down those who couldn't bear to retreat.

And the Song army's fleet, lined up in a line, is like an angry dragon galloping above the water, rushing against the current, and the white waves can't stop smashing at the bow of the ship, it seems that nothing can stop the advance of this fleet!

Among the hundreds of crossbow machines, the shadow of the Song army finally appeared, and the cooked cowhide hanging on both sides of the tugging boat was like a pair of huge wings spread out, and it was densely packed with feather arrows.

Yang Zhong stared coldly at these Song boats.

The Bohai Sea has been destroyed in the hands of the Liao people for a long time, and the Bohai people have never forgotten the glory of their dominance in Liaodong on that day. And now attached to the Jurchens, the Bohai clan has seen hope of rising again! No matter how much blood will be shed in the Southern Dynasty that they once looked up to and watched with their rise, and how much destruction and killing will be accompanied by it!

Yang Zhong suddenly roared: "Release!" (To be continued......)
